Product Description:

The AKD-T04807 servo drive is manufactured by Kollmorgen and is supplied within the AKD Servo Drives series. It is designed to modulate current, velocity, and position for brushless servomotors used in packaging lines, material-handling axes, and general automation cells, providing closed-loop motor control while interfacing with three-phase industrial power. In automated equipment, the drive works as the control link between incoming power and the motor, converting command signals into regulated electrical output. Closed-loop operation helps limit speed error and supports repeatable axis movement when the load changes during a cycle.

This unit is delivered in the BASIC drive version, so it includes standard motion functions without optional fieldbus extensions. Its continuous output capability is 48 Arms, allowing it to run medium-frame motors at their rated thermal limits during 100% duty cycles. The drive accepts a supply of 240/480 Vac three-phase, so the same hardware can be wired to low- or high-line plants without a transformer. Under steady-state operation it draws a maximum apparent power of 40.9 kVA, which affects feeder breaker size and cable ampacity. Hardware built to the standard width option weighs 11.5 kg, so cabinet rail selection must account for this static load as well as clearances for airflow.

During accelerations or load shocks, the control section can source a peak output of 96 Arms for up to five seconds, delivering short bursts of torque without exceeding device thermal limits. Within the wider product family identified as the AKD Servo Drive, this model uses the same core control platform, and support for encoder options and diagnostic tools remains consistent across the product line. Because the power stage is inherently three-phase, motor phase symmetry is preserved, minimizing ripple torque when the drive is coordinated with higher-level PLC or motion controllers. This arrangement supports even power delivery across the motor windings and stable response during rapid acceleration and deceleration.
